CHAPTER V


A CELEBRATION ON THE CAMPUS


"Say, Tom, this is great!"

"What now, Sam?"

"All of us have passed the exams with credit marks."

"All of us? Are you sure?"

"Yes, I was in the classroom not five minutes ago and got the good word."

"Say, that makes me feel like dancing a jig!" cried Tom Rover, and he did a few steps on the floor of the gymnasium. "Won't the folks at home be tickled when they hear of it!"

"Dick got the highest marks of the class," went on the youngest Rover. "Stanley is next."

"Where do we come in?"

"You are seventh."

"Oh, lucky seventh!" murmured the fun-loving Rover. "It's always that way! At baseball if I do anything at all it is usually in the seventh innings."
